Take some time to stop and smell the roses at the Jersey Shore Rose Society’s (JSRS) 42nd Annual Rose Show on Saturday, September 14 from 12:30-3:30pm at Deep Cut Gardens. A picturesque, 54-acre horticultural site with many garden-related amenities, including its own Rose Parterre, Deep Cut Gardens is located on Red Hill Road in Middletown, just off the Garden State Parkway Exit 114.
